26 February 2024 – Toowoomba Decides
The Chronicle, Triple M, and Toowoomba Chamber have joined forces to bring to the community, Toowoomba Decides.
A Town Hall Forum, where the community gets to engage with Councilor Candidates who are contesting the upcoming local government elections. A chance to interact with aspiring local politicians and hear from them on topics of interest to you. An opportunity to raise, ask, and discuss specific matters of importance to you. An event to help you choose who to vote for in the upcoming election.
This FREE event will follow a question-and-answer style. Specifically designed to have questions answered. No pitches. An opportunity for candidates to showcase their value to the Toowoomba Region, to allow constituents and our members more time to ask questions, providing transparency and accountability, and facilitating greater access with candidates.
Toowoomba Decides
And to reach a broader audience The Chronicle will livestream, Toowoomba Decides.
Want to know more about each candidate? We have provided the opportunity for all candidates to:
· submit a two-minute video to the Toowoomba Chamber to distribute through its networks highlighting who they are, why they should be elected and outlining three key areas of focus; and
· arrange a time to meet with and be interviewed by Lee Faulkner of Triple M.
Toowoomba Decides is a BIG Deal to the Toowoomba Chamber. Why? Because we are a small business city that is the backbone of the Toowoomba regional economy. We are crucial to the region’s sustainability and growth.
And we know when small business hurts our whole community hurts too.
The Toowoomba Chamber wants to see a turbocharged region, with money flowing directly into the local economy. We want to be the region, on everyone’s lips, where business people talk about Toowoomba being THE place for business. Surely, that is not much to ask for.
And yes, Toowoomba Regional Council plays a critical and BIG role in small business success. How? Communicating and engaging with small businesses to enable growth. By creating enabling regulations to bring economic prosperity to a region. By incentivising small businesses. And much much more.

We are the independent voice of business in our region. We will continue to advocate loudly, without fear or favour, to ensure the voice of business is heard.
